Friday Five!

So so so looking forward to the weekend. Pretty sure it's the first weekend in months that we have not a single plan in the works. I have an idea of some things I'd like to do this weekend, but it's too much pressure to actually write it out. I'd like to just see how the weekend goes. I can't wait!

Reflecting on this past week, here are the friday five highlights! Linking Up with:

A. Liz Adventures - Carolina Charm - Hello!Happiness - The Good Life Blog

1. The best part of the week is today because David comes home from a week trip. I was quite a bit jealous that he got to spend the week in Atlanta. I tried my hardest to convince him that I should tag along for the week, to no avail. The wise guy turned me down due to the fact that I don't have a job yet, meaning smallllll budget. Lame. ESPECIALLY because it was cold....AND....we got snow.

2. Snow! ONLY mid-November through New Years Day is snow acceptable in my book! So bring it on for another 7 weeks. By February 2nd, I will likely be cursing that darn Groundhog.

3. I purchased this sweater this week and have worn it every single day with leggings. Obsessed. Definitely not loving the way they show this sweater on the website.

4. Extra Snuggles before bed with Padrig. This dog. THIS DOG! The best. He kept me company all week long.

5. Chai Tea Lattes. New discovery. Enough said.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Thanksgiving with Pinterest

The best part about being married and having TWO families to celebrate holidays with? Thanksgiving dinner TWICE!! That's right, I don't hold back. I will eat both meals in their entirety and not feel bad for one flippin second.

Needless to say, I'm pumped for Thanksgiving.

AND I ABSOLUTELY REFUSE to shop the crazy early hours. No thanks, not for me. I'll look for my deals the day after Christmas (which happen to be better deals anyways).

On another note, I thought I would add some of my favorite Pinterest finds related to Thanksgiving. Before we made the move back to Michigan, David and I both wanted to host Thanksgiving at our house in Indy. We will have to wait til next year when we have a house to host in!

Onwards!

* Cute printables for Thanksgiving gifts. I really like this idea! Why save all the gifts for Christmas?!

*Bringing the Outside Inside with this leaf garland. Next time I walk the dog, I will be on a leaf hunt...

As much as I love crafting and making decorations, most of my time is spent creating for my clients' painting and wedding projects. I'd love to have a moment to try out projects from Pinterest or think up some crafty goodness to share here on this blog, but heck…I'm lucky if I can manage a…

*While this is not just a Thansgiving decoration, I love the multi-use. My sister-in-law made her own DIY craft similar to this a couple years ago.

*Leaf art. Not sure how well I could DIY and pull this off, but worth a try sometime. You could even have everyone write on the wood and add what they are each thankful for? Or instead of a leaf, you could make a turkey with the leaves as the feathers?? So much possibility!

I'll share any of my projects that I attempt. Can't wait to get started. Hope they don't turn into a pinterest fail. ;)

Our Wedding

I wanted to share some photos and details from our wedding. It was truly such a special day and I still get excited looking at the photos. 25 years from now I am sure I will feel the same way!

Starting with the "getting ready" shots!
